Lyrics James LaBrie

James LaBrie

Undertow

Waves crash over me

And there's no time to breathe

I think I might be in too deep

I don't know up from down

can't stop from spinnin' round

No hope of landing on my feet

Nowhere to go, nowhere to go

Nowhere to go, I'm stuck inside a nightmare

When I'm scared and silently scream "no"

My heart's beating fast but I'm moving slow

Before I start sinking below

You grab on and never let me go

Don't let me go, don't let me go

When I need you the most

You pull me out of the undertow

But nine times out of ten

I'll just fall in again

And one would think that I would learn

After all this time now

Repeat the same mistakes

Get trapped under the breaks

And playin' with fire just gets me

Gets me, gets me burned

Nowhere to go, nowhere to go

Nowhere to go, I'm stuck inside a nightmare

When I'm scared and silently scream "no"

My heart's beating fast but I'm moving slow

Before I start sinking below

You grab on and never let me go

Don't let me go, don't let me go

When I need you the most

You pull me out of the undertow

Face down in the sand

Think I understand now

Seen my stubborn ways

And it's time I give a damn

When I'm scared and silently scream "no"

My heart's beating fast but I'm moving slow

Before I start sinking below

You grab on and never let me go

Don't let me go

Don't let me go

When I need you the most

You pull me out of the undertow
